Antisemitism in communities examined

The session will look at antisemitic hate crime in communities, victim experiences and public service responses.

MPs are keen to explore the issue from the moment an incident occurs through to, potentially, conviction.

Key areas likely to be covered include:

Decisions by victims about whether to report an incident to police or third-parties;

Support for victims by public services and third-parties;

Police decision-making on recording, pursuing and charging for antisemitic offences;

CPS decision-making on recording, pursuing and charging for antisemitic offences; and

Support for victims and witnesses throughout police investigations and court processes.

The session has two panels: the first has representatives and experts on the victim experience of antisemitic hate crime and the second is made up of representatives from the Metropolitan Police and Crown Prosecution Service.
